Basic Program Information

It is our belief that a preschool experience based on God’s love, grace and forgiveness will provide a child with a lasting spiritual foundation, develop self-esteem and an appreciation and respect for themselves and others. The child who has the opportunity to know God will grow and prosper, become a good citizen, maintain a Christian life and enrich the lives of others. 

Our curriculum includes many socialization opportunities; familiarization with Bible stories and music; the development of gross and fine motor skills; the study of colors, numbers, shapes, letters and letter sounds. Furthermore, our curriculum includes supervised games, educational field trips, chapel and the foundational sharing of Jesus’ love every day.

Our curriculum and program are designed to prepare your child, very specifically, for their eventual participation in a full-day kindergarten experience. Care and attention are applied to your child’s developmental needs, and we firmly believe they will benefit from what we have to offer. Our program uses the One in Christ curriculum.

Before completing the Online Registration and Medical Information forms, please be aware of our fees.

3-Year-Old Class

For most 3-year-olds preschool is their very first experience stepping out on their own. We understand this experience can be emotional for both child and parent which is why one of our main curriculum goals is to make this separation a positive experience. We focus on socialization – sharing, verbalizing wants and needs, and making new friends. We also introduce basic foundational academic principals such as letter recognition and sounds, numbers, shapes and colors.

To give children an appreciation of seasons we plan special holiday celebrations which include a Thanksgiving Day Feast, Christmas Program, Valentine’s Day Celebration, Easter Egg Hunt, a Mother’s Tea, and an End of the Year Picnic. In order to expand their experience all of the children enjoy a field trip to the Pumpkin Patch in the fall and a trip Salem Church Library midway through the school year.

In an effort to maintain close one on one contact we limit our class size to 12 students. Our current staffing standards are maintained at one teacher and one teacher’s aide per class.

4-Year-Old Class

Our primary goal for your 4-year-old is to prepare them for Kindergarten. There are field trips and special activities focused on expanding their socialization habits and broadening their academic exposure. We expand their academic curriculum to include advanced letter and word recognition, writing, numbers and counting.  

Your child will enjoy some additional experiences including Chapel services in the Sanctuary with the Pastor, a visit from the Fire Department, and a Graduation Ceremony and reception. 

To give children an appreciation of seasons we plan special holiday celebrations which include a Thanksgiving Day Feast, Christmas Program, Valentine’s Day Celebration, Easter Egg Hunt, a Mother’s Tea, and an End of the Year Picnic.
